i hope they will release this update as soon as possibile, are just 3 code lines
remove: raids
on death: no lose equipment
stamina regene x2

actually i will appreciate more the easy mode than another biome, the game is already big, full of stuff, i've 700 hours of play, and i can't find friends who wants to play with me just because is too much diffucult (and i bought this game as a gift many times)

fully unknown as of current. given what they did with ballistas you wont be able to turn stuff on and off on demand. its probaly a permanent choice of some sort.
